buyer's club

Some markets close at Thanksgiving, others at Christmas, others play by rules that aren't so simple! I've updated the Farm Calendar to help simplify this, but here's the details just in case! We'll cover the easy ones first!

The market season is rapidly coming to a close! While we will certainly miss all of our customers, we don't want to miss you! I don't want you to sign our yearbook, like we're parting ways - we just want you to be aware that you don't have to settle for inferior produce in the lonely months when the market is closed. So we're taking this opportunity to let you know how to join our winter buyer's club and recieve monthly deliveries of items of your choosing to somewhere right in your backyard!

The Buyer's Club is a fairly straight forward, easy thing to join! You'll recieve two emails per month - just two reminders about ordering deadlines. Then, at a date and time listed below, you will arrive and pick up your order with your receipt and take your morsels of culinary bliss along with you! Simple as that! Just sign up through our mailing list. (Drive the Cold Winter Away, part II for Winter Market purists)

Baltimore/Towson Buyer's Club - you tell me!

So, we'd love to provide this for our customers but we need to hear from you! Please shoot us an email in the website's contact form specifying your preference for weekend or weekday deliveries, morning or afternoon, and preferred location - downtown Baltimore or Atwaters in Towson. We'd love to get you involved!

During the last few weeks of your favorite farmers market, you may have heard about our Winter Buyers Club - a new venture aimed at keeping our awesome and worthy customers satisfied with delicious apples (and other stuff) during the cold winter months when we're not at market. Many of you signed up to get email notification of when these orders will be delivered in your home town (click here, choose option "BC - "Your City/area"). We wanted this info out sooner, but we needed to update our online store with more selections and safe, secure authorize.net credit card authentication! We've also partnered with other farmers so you can pick up multiple things in one stop! Those emails are going out at present, but here's what to expect:

Every fourth Saturday between the hours of 12:00 noon and 12:30, we'll be delivering your online orders. Plus, we'll be right beside our regular neighbors at Hillacres Pride, who will be taking your orders for all your favorite meats, cheeses, dairy products, and milk on their website! One stop shopping for a month's worth of farm-fresh, sustainably raised, high quality fruits, veggies, proteins, cheeses, raw milk, and eggs! For a discount on your first buyers club purchase, just complete our short survey and click "submit" at the end.

Every third Sunday through the offseason, we'll be delivering orders for Greenbelters to the GFM parking lot nearest to New Deal Cafe between 10:00am and 10:30am. We're partnering with Two Oceans True Food, Greenbelt Farmers Markets' sustainable seafood vendor who will bring your seafood orders during the same time. We'll make the quick trip over to Silver Spring afterwards and deliver to the fine folks of that community in the same trip at a location to be determined.
